Grunny, Absolon and Others

Love the Fandom is all about appreciating actors, characters and shows. So in this post I will appreciate the wonderousness that is Greg Grunberg, a.k.a. Grunny. He is AWESOME and so very funny. He seems to be slightly nuts too. But in a good way. Check out buckshotwon's videos featuring 'Grunny.' They are hilarious.

Absolon. The parish clerk in Chaucer's 'The Miller's Tale' who wants Alison for himself. When Chaucer desribes him as a womaniser and as a blonde, I immedaitely thought of David Anders/Adam Monroe/Julian Sark and the tribute video someone did of Sark on youtube to the song 'Womaniser.' Now I know that whenever someone talks about Absolon in my English Lit class I will forever think of David 'Mr. Adorable' Anders. Which is always a good thing.

I think that's partly the reason I like his character. Add to that the fact that he shoved what is basically a very sharp instrument up that know-it-all Nicholas' arse and you've got a very good likeable character.

Now a show I could appreciate. Hmmm...how about Alias? It is, for all its wacked-oput storylines about Milo Rambaldi and his prophesies, a completely wonderful show. I have always liked Jennifer Garner and Alias just made me even more of a fan. Add to that mix the adorable Michael Vartan, the cute Bradley Cooper, the funny/sweet Kevin Weisman and the coolness that is David Anders and you've got the perfect show. Greg Grunberg being a guest star is one of the many secret ingredients.
